Our photography and videography is captured in *HLG, which means that images and video are in both the SDR (Standard Dynamic Range) and HDR (high dynamic range) format. As a significant amount of website and social media browsing is carried out 'on the go', Mobile Phones and Tablets with the OLED displays (e.g ©iPhone X and newer), can display HDR images and video giving a more dynamic viewing experience.

My name is Duncan Sibley and i am the chief photographer, based in Kings Hill, approximately 25 miles south of London here in Kent, united kingdom.
Back in the 1980's, I worked with the BBC located at the Pebble Mill Studios in Birmingham on their show 'Pebble Mill at One'. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn the art of television and production from the best and it started me on my photographic journey.
As a stills photographer & videographer, I have had the pleasure of participating in a range of projects from fashion to on-set photography (those behind-the-scenes shots that you see during the making of a film). In addition, I have been actively involved in videography including informational, casting, promotional and real-life videos.
We use the latest Photography, Videography and Drone equipment from ©Panasonic LUMIX and ©DJI, the quality of the end product speaks for itself.
My business is based upon quality and 'attention to detail'. using the latest software from ©Adobe for editing images and video footage, ©frame.io for remote editing and distribution of images and video footage in real-time and ©Adobe Portfolio for a personal viewing experience.

*The technical stuff!
The HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) format is a type of High Dynamic Range (HDR) standard used for video and images. It was developed by the BBC and NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) as a way to deliver HDR content in a backward-compatible manner, meaning it can be viewed on both HDR and SDR (standard dynamic range) displays without needing separate versions.
HLG is primarily used for video, but HDR imaging principles, including HLG, can apply to still images as well. Compatibility with HDR Displays: When viewed on HDR-capable devices, HLG images can display higher brightness levels and richer colours.
